| Description | Background/Question/Methods An exotic haplotype of Phragmites australis is rapidly invading wetlands across North America where it can form large monotypic stands and out-compete native vegetation. In the Chesapeake Bay, Phragmites is more abundant in subestuaries in developed watersheds. Little is known, however, about how this plant spreads and what factors may contribute to its success.
